Meet Citylife Madrid: Marco!

Hey there! My name is Marco, I’m 25 years old and I’m responsible for the online marketing in Citylife Madrid. I also run our Party Animals event on Fridays at Moondance and the Citylife newsletter that many of you read every week (thank you!).

I was born in Taranto, a city in the south of Italy known as the the city with two seas. But, as the saying goes “the boat is safer anchored at the port; but that’s not the aim of boats” – when I was 18, I left my hometown and moved to Milan. I had the opportunity to study in one of the top universities for economics in Europe – the chance of a lifetime!

I used to live in Milan for six years until I decided that I was ready to go on an international adventure! I took one of the two spots available in my university to study in Madrid and one year ago, I arrived!

My time abroad should have lasted only 4 months, but Citylife Madrid gave me the opportunity to work in its international and motivating environment and I couldn’t refuse! I’m passionate about my job, I really love how I am challenged every day!

When I’m not working, I love to read and sing – my best performances are in the shower. I love to watch movies, I’m a Guns N’ Roses devote, an AC Milan warm supporter, a former amateur tennis player… and obviously a party addict! If you want to join an amazing party night, join me every Friday in Party Animals. I’ll be there, ready to welcome you into the jungle!

As a part of the Citylife community we want to get to know all of our staff so you can feel as comfortable as possible during your stay in Madrid! Check out the About Citylife Madrid page to meet all of the crew and learn a little more about what Citylife is all about!
